is the “Ugly Man Contest." The

An organization to fill a long-
felt need was recently perfected
in Markham. The Community
Athletic Association, designed to
serve the Clemville. Markham and
i Buckeye communities, was organ-
ized with H. T. Barber, president;
Luther Robertson, secretary; Her-
man Coffman, vice-president; and
Alfred Hansen, treasurer.
This group was organized for
the purpose of promoting athletic
and other entertainment among
the resident of these communities
for folks of all ages. Its chief
aim is a social one and it was
(emphasized that it is distinctly
a non-profit organization. The nu-
cleus of all its athletic activity
will probably be centered around
